Biotherapy (バイオセラピー) , 1986 

[riotatthemovies]

Biotherapy 1986 Hey it's the killer from evil dead trap and he kills in even more cartoony Gorey ways..wait nope..it's a short film about an alien killing people with the logic of the aliens from Plan 9 from outer space. Interesting 35 min film from Japan that's legit shades of Evil dead Trap and a Kamen Rider episode. Imagine if the episode of Kamen Rider where all the characters and plots are spot on but no hero at all and the villian is just a slasher villian that legit disembowelles random scientists and every day folk. It's weird and oddly silly but of course I recommend it.

Researchers develop technique to synthesize water-soluble alloy nanoclusters

In recent years, ultrasmall metal nanoclusters have unlocked advances in fields ranging from bioimaging and biosensing to biotherapy, thanks to their unique molecular-like properties. In a study published in the journal Polyoxometalates, a research team from Qingdao University of Science and Technology proposed a design to synthesize atomically precise, water-soluble alloy nanoclusters. "The novelty of this study is in a new strategy for the synthesis of water-soluble alloy nanoclusters and a further contribution to the fundamental understanding of the alloying mechanism of metal nanoclusters," said study author Xun Yuan from Qingdao University of Science and Technology. "The ultimate goal is to develop such alloy nanoclusters as novel nanomedicine," Yuan said.

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE): a complex autoimmune disease

What is systemic lupus erythematosus?

Systemic lupus erythematosus, often abbreviated to SLE, is a chronic autoimmune disease. This means that the immune system, which is supposed to protect the body against external aggression, turns against its own tissues. In the case of lupus, it attacks different parts of the body, causing inflammation.

What causes lupus?

The exact causes of lupus are not entirely known, but several factors seem to contribute to it:

- Genetic factors: some people have a genetic predisposition to developing the disease.

- Environmental factors: exposure to the sun, certain infections and certain medications can trigger the disease in predisposed individuals.

- Immune system dysfunction: excessive production of autoantibodies that attack the body's cells and tissues.

What are the symptoms?

The symptoms of lupus vary greatly and can affect many organs. The most common are

- Skin manifestations: ‘butterfly wing’ rash on the face, sun sensitivity, mouth ulcers.

- Joint pain: swelling, redness and pain in the joints, similar to arthritis.

- Fatigue: intense and persistent tiredness.

- Fever: often low grade but prolonged.

- Kidney problems: kidney damage may occur in severe forms of the disease.

- Heart problems: inflammation of the pericardium or heart valves.

- Neurological problems: headaches, convulsions, memory problems.

How is lupus diagnosed?

Diagnosing lupus is often complex because the symptoms can vary from one person to another and mimic other diseases. It is based on :

- Clinical examination: the doctor will look for the characteristic signs of the disease.

- Complementary examinations:

o Blood tests: to look for specific autoantibodies.

o Skin biopsy: to confirm characteristic skin inflammation.

o Ultrasound, MRI, CT scan: to assess involvement of other organs.

What are the treatments?

Lupus treatment aims to control inflammation, relieve symptoms and prevent complications. It may include :

- Medication: anti-inflammatory drugs, corticosteroids, immunosuppressants, and more recently biotherapies.

- Symptomatic treatments: to relieve joint pain, skin problems, etc.

How do you live with lupus?

Living with lupus requires comprehensive care and adaptation to the disease. It is important to :

- See a doctor regularly to monitor the progress of the disease.

- Adopt a healthy lifestyle: balanced diet, appropriate physical activity, stress management.

- Learn more about the disease to better understand and manage it.

- Join patient associations for psychological support and to talk to other people suffering from the same disease.

The Global Amniotic Membrane Market will grow at highest pace owing to rising aging population.

Amniotic Membrane or amnion refers to the innermost layer of the placenta. It acts as a physical barrier between the fetus and the mother's uterus. Amniotic membrane finds wide application in wound healing and surgical reconstruction owing to its anti-inflammatory, anti-scarring, and anti-angiogenic properties. It is used in treatments involving burns, skin injuries, ophthalmic defects, and chronic non-healing ulcers. The growing geriatric population suffering from chronic diseases and wounds has increased the demand for amniotic membrane products in wound management. The Global Amniotic Membrane Market is estimated to be valued at US$ 3.62 Bn in 2024 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 13% over the forecast period 2023 to 2030. Key Takeaways Key players operating in the Amniotic Membrane market are Smith & Nephew, Applied Biologics, Organogenesis Holdings Inc., Osiris Therapeutics, Inc., Alliqua BioMedical, Inc., Amnio Technology, LLC, Next Biosciences, Integra LifeSciences, MiMedx, LifeCell International, Human Regenerative Technologies, LLC, Amniox Medical, Inc, Skye Biologics Inc., Wright Medical, TissueTech, Katena Products, Inc., NuVision Biotherapies, Surgenex, and Ventris Medical. The growing aging population and increase in chronic wounds has augmented the demand for amniotic membrane products. Technological advancements such as development of micronized and acellular amniotic membranes formulations have expanded the application scope of amniotic membranes. Market Trends Cryopreservation of Amniotic Membranes - Cryopreservation allows for long-term storage of amniotic membranes at sub-zero temperatures while maintaining viability and key properties. This enables stockpiling and just-in-time delivery of amniotic membranes to clinics and hospitals. Micronization of Amniotic Membranes - Micronization is the process of comminuting amniotic membranes into micron-sized powder. This improves handling, storage, and delivers concentrated growth factors effectively to target sites. Micronized amniotic membranes have applications in wound healing and regenerative medicine. Market Opportunities Rising Aging Population - The growing geriatric population prone to chronic wounds, burns, and non-healing injuries will drive the demand for amniotic membrane products in wound management over the forecast period. Expanding Applications in Regenerative Medicine - Increased research on regenerative potential of amniotic membranes is extending their use in treatment of degenerative ocular surface diseases, lower urinary tract conditions, musculoskeletal disorders thereby opening new opportunities. Impact of COVID-19 on Amniotic Membrane Market: The COVID-19 pandemic posed significant challenges to the amniotic membrane market. During the early phases of the pandemic, restrictions on non-essential medical procedures led to supply chain disruptions and uncertainties around product availability. Manufacturers faced challenges in sourcing raw materials and maintaining continuous production due to lockdowns and social distancing measures. Movement restrictions also impacted the delivery of products to customers. The focus of healthcare resources on critical COVID-19 patients resulted in delays and postponements of other medical procedures that utilize amniotic membrane products. This adversely affected market demand in the short term.

Nutritional Biotherapy

The ability of food to bring health or illness was already known since ancient times. In the 4th century BC Hippocrates said that food would be our medicine. Even most of the precepts of the Salerno medical school consisted of dietary suggestions. However, it has only been for a few decades that science has been tackling the study of nutrition in an ever more profound manner. The proliferation of many studies is offering us an increasingly broader image of the therapeutic capabilities of individual foods and therefore of the importance of nutrition on the balance of the state of health or disease. All this research offers us a much broader picture of nutrition, which is no longer seen in exclusively quantitative terms, with the measurement of the major nutrients or calories, which must satisfy our energy needs, but with the ability to influence everything metabolism and therefore on the causes of disease themselves.
